Thread: Drag & drop image upload

Hi guys.

I know this might be a small thing, but it would be easier to add images if you just could drag them into to the post!

Actually vbulletin does have an image drag & drop function. We just have to fine tune the settings for T-I. I'd like to see this implemented in the next couple of weeks. Thanks for reminding me!

Sounds gr8 m8, I'm looking forward using that function!

I was just working on a html 5 ajax (multiple) image uploader (wich could easilly be extended to support drag and drop, just add the event handler). Here is the (simplified) javascript code.

<input type="file" id="input" multiple="" onchange="handleFileUpload(this.files)">

<script>
function handleFileUpload(filesToUpload){
for (var i = 0, file; file = filesToUpload[i]; i++) {
// Only process image files.
if (!file.type.match('image.*')) {
// not an image
} else {
var fd = new FormData();
fd.append("fileField", file);
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
// url to post to
xhr.open("POST", "/dump.php");
xhr.send(fd);
}
}
}
</script>

All right, but I'm searching for an build-in function, where you can drag an image from your desktop or any other folder and drop it/them here in this syusem :D

I guess I can close this tread?!
